Mamelodi Sundowns were not in the Premier Soccer League action owing to their CAF Champions League quarter-final engagement.

In that fixture at Loftus Versfeld Stadium, the South African heavyweights did everything as expected to claim a massive 3-0 win. Arthur Sales set up Khuliso Mudau for an opening goal before Nuno Santos teed up Brayan Leon for the second.

Santos provided his second assist, but for Iqraam Rayners to make it 3-0 and stand a massive chance of advancing.

Will Mamelodi Sundowns deliver in Mzansi ahead of the second leg?

The Brazilians will now work on completing the job in Mali on Sunday, March 22, to make the last four of the annual competition.

However, before the second meeting, Masandawana have a vital Premier Soccer League fixture against Marumo Gallants. This will be a vital game for the hosts, who are keen on replacing Orlando Pirates at the top of the table.

The Soweto giants have a one-point advantage after playing 21 points, with the latest outing against Siwelele last weekend ending 1-1 to give the defending champions an advantage and a chance to go top.

The inevitable changes

Mamelodi Sundowns will have to work without the services of Jayden Adams, Khuliso Mudau and Aubrey Modiba. The trio is suspended for the fixture.
